A father
filled with violence and rage
keeping his wife locked up an  unpleasantly cage
he drinks and screams and hits his wife
but ends up taking his own miserable life

A mother
inexperienced, beautiful and scared
year after year she gets even harder to repair
she's filled with love for her two girls and her little boy
but her life is not filled with that much joy

30 years later*

A daughter
with kids, a husband and a good life

Another daughter
with a lovely family and a life without strife

A son
who broke the contact with their mother, oh how it made her sad
but even worse, he blamed her for the loss of his dad.
I wrote this poem about this famlily because it affects me. The mother is my favorite person in the world and she's been through a lot - but she's the most warm-hearted person I've ever known. And now she's happy with a man here in this country who's treating her right and making her laugh. I'm so and thankful for that. All I ever want is for her to be happy.
